Xi Qin Emperor Han Wu, slightly lost literary style; Tang Zong Song Zu, slightly inferior", these few poems are certainly familiar to everyone, in the feudal period, the two strongest dynasties are none other than the Qin State and the Tang Dynasty, which in addition to military strength, political culture, economy, etc. all crushed all countries. Literati and inkers, warriors and warriors, and virtuous men are also emerging in an endless stream. However, such a prosperous Tang Dynasty also has a stain, the tang dynasty's royal history is notoriously chaotic, it is estimated that the Tang Dynasty is too rich and strong to have no opponents, the imperial family will idle to engage in party struggle and play.
Wu Zetian
Li Xian may not be known to you, but his parents are well known to everyone, his parents are the famous Tang Gaozong and China's first female emperor Wu Zetian, Li Xian was the emperor for a short time when he was a child, but unfortunately, he later caused wu Zetian's dissatisfaction and was deposed and left from the government. It was not until his mother was critically ill that a group of powerful courtiers led by chancellor Zhang Kamzhi supported Li Xian's restoration, and Li Xian regained the throne.
Since Li Xian seized the throne, Empress Wei and his daughter Princess Anle around him instantly became the object of people's attention. In fact, there was nothing to do with it a little bit, after all, when the official was well, everyone mixed food, but the Qing official ran out of a leading figure of "patting the horse's ass", named Dou Huaizhen.
Dou Huaizhen's father and grandfather had been officials in the imperial court for generations, and they were all good officials who worried about the country and the people, single-mindedly for the country, and had a clean wind in their sleeves, especially his father Dou Dexuan reached the height of his official position and reached the position of prime minister, assisting Emperor Gaozong of Tang. After decades of accumulation, and with the reputation of grandfather and father Qingguan, the common people will give a thumbs up when they hear the Dou family, we have always had an old saying, rich but not three generations, the Dou family to Dou Huaizhen's generation, the family face was lost by him.
Dou Huaizhen
Could it be that Dou Huaizhen is a clumsy rich second generation? In fact, no, at the beginning, Dou Huaizhen still achieved some success in his studies, and he passed the jinshi examination at a young age. During his time as an official, he was of high moral character and never sneaked around. Even the prime minister Di Renjie heard of his reputation and came to observe and examine him, and finally he was recommended to Wu Zetian and ascended to heaven one step at a time.
However, after Wu Zetian's abdication, Dou Huaizhen fell out of favor, presumably due to the turmoil in the imperial court and the people's lack of livelihood. He changed his image of the Qing dynasty official in the past and turned to the powerful Empress Wei and Princess Anle. To what extent is it flattering? Empress Wei's father was named Wei Xuanzhen, and Dou Huaizhen, in order to avoid the courtesy of fame, took the initiative to change his name to Dou Congyi, indicating that he was loyal to Empress Wei and ended up. Know that the ancients regarded names more than life, because they were given by their parents.
After this operation, even the real traitors sighed to themselves, and Tang Zhongzong Li Xian was a little unaccustomed to the way he patted his ass. At the banquet of Chinese New Year's Eve Night, Tang Zhongzong had a sudden idea, thinking about the whole horse ass essence, and said to marry him. At that time, Dou Huaizhen was already in his forties and had never married a concubine, and when he heard that the emperor had given him a marriage, he repeatedly prostrated his head in thanksgiving.
However, after the bride was carried out by everyone, it was an old lady who was more than half a hundred years old and had white hair, and she took a closer look at the nursing mother of Tang Zhongzong. Anyone can see that this is the emperor rectifying him, deliberately letting him not get off the stage, but Dou Huaizhen is very surprised, he shouted "long live thank you", happily finished the banquet, and went into the cave room with the 60-year-old lady.
It turned out that in Dou Huaizhen's heart, as long as it could make the royal family happy, as long as she could climb the relationship with the royal family, even if it was a nursing mother in her 60s. Therefore, he was not ashamed, but proud, and often showed off this matter.
Lee Long-ki
However, two years later, Li Xian's death, the Wei hou faction prepared to support Li Dan to the throne, so a fierce struggle arose with the crown prince Li Longji and the Taiping Princess faction, and finally the Taiping Princess eliminated the Wei Hou faction. In order to pat the prince's ass, Dou Huaizhen turned around and killed his wife who was related to the old royal family and defected to Princess Taiping. However, the good times did not last long, and two years later, the crown prince Li Longji officially ascended the throne, but at this time, Princess Taiping also had a rebellious heart, and Li Longji changed from a friend to an opponent. However, in the end, Princess Taiping failed and was given to die in her home. Dou Huaizhen was also beheaded by Li Longji for taking the wrong horse's ass.
